Have you heard about Army medic Sgt. Joe Lollino – the Army’s Hero of the Week?

Of course you haven’t. Not many people have heard of him or the others because we don’t often get to hear about the men and women in Afghanistan and Iraq who are risking their lives to spread democracy in the middle east.

My cousin, Howard, posted this article on his facebook page. Since we’re fighting two wars and I don’t think we do enough for our military, I’m posting a link here. He was just doing his job.

I think we forget in this country, when we watch TV or sit in our comfortable desks at work, that rescuing wounded soldiers who are under attack by enemy fire is someone’s JOB.
